I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful, I know that full well. Psalm 139:14
I woke up like usual, got ready for the day. Brandyn had already left for work hours earlier. I don't think I had any particular plans for the day, so I was taking my time getting ready. The night before I had taken a pregnancy test which was negative (along with probably 25-35 or so other tests over the past few months). I had told Brandyn that we should go back to the fertility doctor after the first of the year and until then just stop hoping to get a positive test. We both agreed and went to bed.
So now back to the next morning November 11th, I thought "well shoot, I'll just take one more...". I took it, set in on the edge of the sink and went on about my morning. I had no expectation at this point for a positive, so I literally didn't even think to check on the results. A few hours went by and I went back to brush my teeth...AND OH MY GOSH. I saw a faint positive line. Could it be real? I started screaming at the test that it was broken, that it wasn't true, NO NO NO way. I thought "ok, maybe it is real, I should take some more tests (different brands of course, lol). I took two more and they were positive. I at this point was shaking, my heart pounding, and crying hysterically. I couldn't believe my eyes. Our prayers, our dreams, our most wished for wish had come TRUE. And biggest most silent fear that we would never get pregnant had vanished. I just sat in awe for hours. It's a feeling I'll never forget.
I ended up going to my next door neighbors house and talking it over and calming down a little. Then I drove up and told my mom (who also cried, and cried out of excitement). I knew way before I even wanted to get pregnant how I wanted to tell and surprise Brandyn.
I would book a photographer, have a sign that read "you're going to be a daddy!", and then I would pull it out of no where in the middle of the photoshoot. I told Brandyn we needed to get our christmas photos taken right away before it was to late. He believed me, whew. He did't suspect anything at all! And then I had to hold the secret inside for two days until the photographer had an opening. I still can't believe I didn't give the surprise away, because I was bursting with excitement!
All went as planed for the photoshoot. Brandyn was 100% surprised. As I watched him laugh and cry because of all the emotions I fell more in love with him. I am so excited to see him be a dad! And I CANNOT wait to see what our little baby looks like! We are so thankful to God for blessing us with our baby. We have had 2 ultrasounds now and seeing our baby was the best feeling in the world. Please keep us in your prayers that the rest of the pregnancy will go smoothly. We can't wait to meet our little bundle of joy, we love you already more than anything little one. And can't wait for you to be in our arms. ♡
